From Pastor Lisa: Just a quick check-in. I had surgery on Friday, and you can see from the picture that I now have lots of hardware in my wrist. Go big or go home, I guess!

Yesterday was pretty rough, but I am definitely feeling less pain today and a little bit more like myself. I’m not able to drive for the time-being, so I am going to be working from home at least through this week. I am so grateful for all your prayers and support.

What a way to start a new call! Looking forward to worshiping with you all very soon.

The Third Sunday after Pentecost reminds us that God’s grace meets us right where we are. Even when life feels messy or uncertain, Jesus invites us to trust in His love, extend mercy to others, and walk together in faith. We'll gather as brothers and sisters in Christ tomorrow at 9 a.m. in this spirit.

Pastor Lisa may lead worship tomorrow depending on how she is feeling after her surgery on Friday. If not, we will celebrate God’s grace with a Service of the Word.

The congregation meeting planned for after tomorrow’s worship has been postponed until a later date.

The altar flowers for tomorrow’s worship service are given to the Glory of God and in memory of Harry Dent by his wife Marion and his family.

From Pastor Lisa: On Friday, I took a tumble while out walking. and one ambulance ride and a long afternoon in the ER later, I am recuperating at home with a compound fracture to my right wrist (good thing I'm left handed). There's a strong possibility that surgery is in my near future. Bottom line: I'm out of commission for a few days. Your prayers are appreciated.

The Second Sunday after Pentecost invites us to reflect on what it means to follow Christ in our daily lives. Through Scripture readings that emphasize God's mercy, grace, and call to faithful discipleship, we are reminded that our relationship with God is rooted not in rules alone, but in God's love for us.

As we gather for worship at 9 a.m. tomorrow with Pastor Lisa Barnes, we will give thanks for the gift of faith and seek the Spirit's guidance to live as Christ's disciples in the world. We warmly invite you to join us.

The altar flowers for tomorrow’s worship service are given to the Glory of God and in honor of the life of our Mom, Barb Skipper, by Emory and Becky Toth..
